Show Comments:
5th show of the tour. Opening night went without any major blow-ups, but not a great show by any stretch. Second show was pretty impressive, but the 3rd and 4th shows in San Jose were a letdown. I was starting to hit my burn out period, and considered skipping the Phoenix shows. Opting to go, and ended up seeing two really good shows. I think the tour really started to click in Phoenix. There were still goofs and mistakes, but energy was high, band was loose, and everybody seemed to be having fun. Enjoy these two shows as an early memento of the surprisingly good 2015 I+E tour.

First show had some nice unique moments. The double header trainwreck of In God's Country (with hyperactive fan) and then Sweetest Thing crashing. Bad was a good audible setlist change, and I think the first night was one of the longest shows of the tour.

Recording Notes:
My usual rig and setup. Had some occasional static but was able to patch for most part. There is one that couldn't get patched, see if you can find it. Counts and clicks are pretty much scrubbed, although you might hear some slight remnants. It's a pretty nice Sharebear style U2 mix. Edgar's audience was pretty good has a varying level of his recording, which sits overtop the main wireless mix.

As always, encouraging people to get into taping and mixing. Just take the craft seriously and it will reward you many times over. There's no point in complaining about missing recordings or subpar quality if you're not contributing--pushing 1's and 0's around on the internet is no comparison for taping.

IEM recordings are not for everyone. If not they're not your thing, either sonically or ethically, there's excellent alternative recordings out there.

Similarly, I'm mixing primarily for my ears. This is what sounds best to me. This may not sound best to you. That's a fair statement. I'm open to honest criticism (although you should have caught me when I was working on the mix!), but pointless complaining is unappreciated (naturally). Let's play nice.

Please don't sell this recording in any way - no cash for blanks, 2:1s, or any other form of "getting paid for your time". Just share it freely.
Please don't convert to mp3, then back to wave, and then trade it around. This stuff is too easy to find on torrents now.
Feel free to remaster/remix this recording. Just keep it to your own computer and iPod.
Also, please don't torrent or share on other sites without at least dropping me a line and asking. I may want to just torrent/share it there myself.
Please ask (and wait for permission!) before putting it into any matrix + video production. If you ask nicely for a quality high-res video project, I will likely say “yes”. If you put it on YouTube or cell phone video production without asking, I will send my cats from hell to chew your computer cables.

Comments:

One of the longest U2 shows during their SOI tour. This was a very hot day in Phoenix and the crowd was very good.
In God's Country was played acoustically with a fan that came on stage and it was one of the highlights. The first
song of this recording The Miracle Of Joey Ramone has a 20-25 sec of frequencies change, after that everything
is Bono & Edge mix feeds. If you like IEM mix, this is for you and if you don't there's plenty of other recordings
out there. Enjoy it!

26. Encore Break
27. City Of Blinding Lights
28. Mother And Child Reunion (snippet) / Where The Streets Have No Name / California (There Is No End To Love) (snippet)
29. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

Notes:
Flew out to Phoenix from DC for these shows and ended up grabbing a last minute GA ticket
from ticketmaster for the first show. Has a fair bit of crowd noise and the music isn't
as well defined as night 2, but I still think it came out pretty well considering the
location of the arrays.

what they said

"I think the last record was very much a sort of U2 fan base record. I don't think we made a hell of a lot of new fans on that record. And with this album, I believe we can."
- The Edge on Songs of Innocence, 2014

did you know

While the band and crew were working on the Joshua Tree album's mixing, Lillywhite's wife, singer Kirsty MacColl, volunteered to set the running order for the album. The band told her to put "Where the Streets Have No Name" first and "Mothers of the Disappeared" last, with the rest sequenced according to her preference.
